thanks guys.

It is a prototype greddy kit made for the xB not the bB.

I'll try and take better pics of the turbo when i get a chance

qaudoptix your thinking of the pictures floating around the net of the NON-intercooled version of the greddy kit, if you look closely at my pictures you see the greddy stickers that labels where the pipes go.

Wow I feel sorry for people riding anywhere around you with all the glare coming from your headlights . Nice little turbo setup though. Hope to see you dyno results soon.

To be fair, it's extemely difficult to take an accurate photograph of how bright a pair of headlights are. He's probably not blinding people any more than that street light is.

Rad job on the turbo.

I disagree. Look at his last picture and how the light goes right into the car he's behind. Check out the pictures in my sig. My lights have no glare at all, and the cutoff is right at the bumper line of the car in front of me when I drive.

ugggg, you people and you're "who cares if i'm blinding oncoming traffic with my lights" attitude...

serriously it's a freking HAZARD, and the reason that here in california it's illegal to install aftermarket HID kit's on your car - is because of poor quallity kits, and people that don't take the time to retrofit their installs with the proper glare guards/sheilds to acheive a proper cutoff

HID's that don't cuttoff properly are dangerous to others on the road - it's not even a "my kit is better than yours" kinda thing, it's more like "my kit wont blind oncoming traffic, and possibly cause an accident, yours will..."

we need hahajoey to get in on the thread jack here he'd set it stright, he's the HID guy..

Let's not jump the conclusion about his lights. It could very well be that the camera's apperature is opened wider to let more lighting in for greater film exposure so that the car can be captured at night. This compensation can make the light appear much brighter than it actually is. Look at the intensity of the street light -- it's just as immensely bright.

Nice turbo box; very slick gauge instrument mount.
